Objective: To describe a quality control system for the detection of errors in the preparation of cytostatic drugs. Methods: The program of quality control implemented in the intravenous therapy unit is based on a gravimetric control. Results: 26% of the preparations carried out underwent a gravimetric control. From the evaluated preparations, 71.4% presented an absolute difference between the observed and the theoretical weight lower than 1.0 g, a value inferior to the sensitivity limit of the used analytical technique. For the MIVs with absolute differences superior to 1.0 g (n = 273), 89 presented a deviation in absolute value =5% of the nominal dose (9.1% of the controls carried out). Conclusion: A fast, reliable and low cost system has been developed for the detection of errors in the preparation of mixtures with cytostatic drugs
